>>Does anyone know if WIND would have been allowed to sell part or all of the LBRT position after the IPO? I would think that they would be under the lockout restriction preventing them from selling for a period of time (I think 6 months). >>They probably could have made a 100% profit on LBRT. If so, perhaps this one-time windfall would help them make the quarter? The one time game wouldn't help them with the quarter in the analysts eyes, as they tend to throw those numbers out the window. Wind would have to state whatever amount was attributed to a one time gain. Dave
